I choose Love no matter what the truth. I choose to look at you all in the eye as I drip with knowledge and still smile right back. I choose to talk straight and do so in the light of the Day. I choose to meet you in the Field of Battle and throw roses at you.I choose to stick to a religion of my own making, whereby I will perceive and investigate, and I will understand and laugh it off. I will do my damndest to hold my knowledge sacred and never mount a high horse.I've been known to get a little dark. And I will write strange blog posts and forever strive for language and meaning far beyond my capacity, but well within reach.

Everything I have feared this past year has come to pass, and yet here I sit smiling. For he was right. There is no fear, only confusion. Confusion, I have watched confusion all around me. People circling themselves and each other, blinded and hooded and unwilling, unable to breath, slow the play, take stock, exhale confusion. And armed with anthropological curiousity I have taken my own lessons from this and found my own way through and you know what? There is no confusion really either, not once you look around at what is real. Brains are powerful and dangerous things. But they are not hearts, they just wish they were and act accordingly.

Heart of Freedom...........Let the light settle. Remember that no matter what, Freedom comes first. Then happiness. But let us quantify freedom for a moment then we can start on the shots. Freedom is not, "I do what I want!" Freedom is being able to stand alone or together or in a group of people and never have to worry about the weight. Whether it is introspection or dealing with another, Freedom allows you to be one hundred percent ready. You are ready. Freedom means you do not carry in your heart, a knot, a hole, a hurt. For if you do, then how will we be able to laugh freely together? How will you be able to look me in the eye? Freedom is not anarchy, taking what you think is yours for you are free and damn the world, damn the rules. Freedom means, no lies, only truth.....then comes happiness.
